Firing ranges?

Does anyone know where to find public or private firing/target ranges near the Virginia/ North Carolina border? I need to zero my pre-64 Winchester model 70. I'm near the Richmond area. These 300 Winchester rifles are are so darned loud, and the blast is always knocking the scope off zero. Darn It!

You might be able to find something from the listing of ranges at

You're welcome to come down to the Uwharrie National Forest near me and use the public shooting range there. It'd be a bit of a drive for you but I could supply all the not-too-old MREs for lunch.

Either your optic is not properly secured to the weapon or your optics are crap....maybe both.

You got me on that one. Kman, I go to a range just across the border, down by Skippers. It's a private range, with up to 400 meter objectives. Very nice sideways pistol range, and newer shotgun/skeet range. Near the town of Roanoke Rapids, off US 301.
